A new internet game is about to be launched which allows 'super snooper' players to plug into the nation's CCTV cameras and report on members of the public committing crimes.

The 'Internet Eyes' service involves players scouring thousands of CCTV cameras installed in shops, businesses and town centres across Britain looking for law-breakers.

Quoted from the article:

“It gives people something better to do than watching Big Brother when everyone is asleep.”

Of so instead of Watching Big Brother they get to “BE BIG BROTHER”, really nice, I am sure this will give all of those “Asian Immigrants” in Britain something to do with their time as they can use it to report every native Britain for jaywalking.

That sounds more like a job than a game.

A low-paying job for a mass of humanity conditioned by endless lotteries.

How many points do they get for spotting Michael Savage or Benny Hinn?
